Exclusive Military Grants — Our Blue Ribbon Grant awards up to $15,000 in additional financial support to qualified current former military, Guard/ Reserve, and dependents. The Armed Services Recognition Grant (up to $5,000) assists eligible military service member students, their spouses, and their children to help minimize out-of-pocket expenses.
